Danny:ÌýDie Hard has a tradition of amazing bad guys but here, the bad guys are from a pound shop.Ìý For future reference, because they are making a sixth Die Hard – if you’re going to be a villain in a Die Hard movie, you need more than just menacingly chewing on a carrot.

Ìý

Claudia: I love the Die Hard franchise, I love the first one, I loved the third one. Very recently there have been lots of films of old guys who’ve stood up, been given a spray tan and a gun – we had The Last Stand with Arnie, then we had Sly Stallone and this one. I still say, of the three, the only one that actually made me laugh was Arnie in The Last Stand because it had jokes. This one doesn't have any jokes.

Claudia:ÌýI have a problem with his film which is that they are all awful.ÌýIt’s not real, that isn't 40. The main problem is the details – they keep talking about their financial crisis while sitting in an eight bedroom house. One's in a BMW, the other is in a Lexus, they go away on mini-breaks. None of it's real. They're just annoying.

Ìý

Danny: This should be called ‘this Is Judd Apatow,’ because you’ve got Leslie Mann, Judd Apatow’s wife playing the wife; you’ve got Judd Apatow’s kids playing the kids. So it’s kind of admirably but also uncomfortably personal.Ìý

Danny: This film picks up just where Downfall ends. Hitler is dead, Berlin has fallen and out in the countryside it's chaos and you can trust no one. There’s always a special power to films about children and war, and Lore is no exception to that. This family of kids go to try and find safety, at the same time as they’re starting to understand what their parents are responsible for. I think this film is a hugely impressive piece of cinema – I think it’s hypnotic, gripping, and it will not leave your head for a very long time after the credits have rolled.

Ìý

Claudia: What’s extraordinary is that it’s coming at it from a totally different point of view. We’ve seen films about this period in history before, but these kids are brilliant – the acting is phenomenal, and it’s Lore's slow realisation which you just can't stop watching.

Ìý

Danny: I think what it does very nicely is it operates as a sort of beginner's guide to film making - it’s very accessible for people like me who wouldn’t know one end of a movie camera from another. But it also sinks it’s teeth into the nitty gritty of movie making in the 21st century and what’s wonderful is it celebrates technology in film. The history of cinema is all about things dying and things being born – because if it wasn't we’d still be watching shaky black and white footage of trains pulling into stations.

Ìý

Claudia: I think Keanu is brilliant – an astute, clver interviewer and he’s not overawed and it’s not all about him. He’s completely respectful of the people he’s interviewing. The other thing I love is that most people, whether they’re proper film buffs, or whether they just love cinema,Ìý will come into this film already with an opinion and it might be flipped. It’s a fascinating watch.
